Your first ever football match?

[Longy]

Just being watching East Anglia's version of late kick off (regional football league show) and it has got me all nostalgic. As they featured my first ever game.

I was 5 years old and my dad took me to watch my local team at Wembley. Norwich vs Sunderland 1985 milk cup final, we won 1-0 and that was it I was Norwich fan, gg Dad who wanted me to follow his team Exeter.

25th anniversary on Wednesday. We sure have won a major trophy since.

My first memory of Leeds United was not a match it was the Division One Championship parade in 1992. I was only 5 but remember this huge flag me and my Dad had and watching all the celebrations in the town centre and seeing Strachan and co doing their speeches. I dont remember much from it, but i remember flashes.

The first match though that i remember was when i was 11.

Leeds v Wolves in the FA Cup Quarter Finals.

Previous to this i didnt watch football, i jus played it. Apparently whenever it was on TV i used to moan coz i wanted to watch Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles or something. I believe i had a Liverpool shirt when i was little because i lived with my Mum and all her side of the family are all from Liverpool and big fans so i wasnt given a choice.

Then i went to see my Dad one weekend and he took me to Elland Road. It was incredible. It was pooring down and we lost 1-0 to a penalty in like the 81st minute but the atmosphere was unbelieveable, it was just brilliant and from then on i begged my Dad to take me every week and he got me a season ticket for the next season and i've had one ever since.

I googled the match and could only find this:
Three years later he (Don Goodman) was off to Wolves in a deal worth £1.1million. The highlight of his time at Molineux came in 1998 when he scored the winning goal against his boyhood idols Leeds United, to take Wolves to the FA Cup semi-finals for the first time in 17 years.

Highbury

Arsenal 2 Man City 1 - Alan Smith with the winner, don't know what season exactly.

1979 Queens Park Rangers 1 v 0 Aston Villa.

Rachid Harkouk smashed home the winner from a Dave Thomas cross.

We were relegated that season Some things never change.

Not really into football more rugby tbh. However, I'm from Preston originally and my cousin is a massive Preston Nob end fan and him and his restaurant used to sponsor the football at all the games and he'd get an anounncement over the tannoy etc.

He took me to about 3 or 4 games in a row when I was 11 or 12ish and they lost all of them, because of that he refused to ever take me again as he said I was a bok
